I faced reality for 8 years in the UK. My emotion was totally down and depressed as a young guy of 19 year old back then. I managed to finish my studies and went back home. Im halpy now and doing well. Never to travel there anymore. Its depressing. You are not living life there, you are surviving life there. Money is not everything, peace of mind matters.

I’m so glad you made this video; it highlights some often neglected but important information. As a South African who lived in the UK for about 12 years, I can say that South Africa, despite its problems, is just so much better. Plus, if we all leave instead of building our country, we will never reach our potential. If you leave, think about coming home and bringing the useful things you’ve learned with you.

I've lived in Australia for 5 year and am now back home in Africa. The way the Ivorian guy describes life in the UK is exactly they way it is in Australia.

"Millions of Africans travel to Europe for jobs & to have a better life. A united Africa would utilize its resources & create jobs that will keep Africans back home. It is either we live or die in Africa. Africa is our mother, how can we leave our mother?" Muammar Gaddafi Much love from Kenya🇰🇪

I’m from the UK and I don’t understand how anyone who isn’t earning good money can afford to live in London. I live in Birmingham and when I visit London, I always regret it and so does my purse!

Honestly the grass is greener where we water it. I've been here for 20 years. Come if you like. But trust me, it's not all that here for you to sell your property and land ownership back home. Find another way to raise the money because you might find yourself WISHING you hadn't sold off all your things back home to work in a warehouse job, that barely covers rent. The grass is greener where we water it.

I Like this kind of content. My ex migrated from Nigeria to Europa. In Nigeria he had a good Job as he had a degree. But in Europe he only got very Basic Jobs for example as a cleaner (He couldnt speak the native language of the European country he was living in). Then his brother also came to Europe, leaving a good Job in Nigeria to work a very basic job in Europe. They both were Not Happy, they imagined their life differently. I asked him why he did not warn his brother. He told me that nonody in Africa would believe, that living in Europe - especially for Africans - is not nearly perfect. And I get that. So i really appreciate this kind of realistic content for people to see.
@WaithakaEnt
The Ivorian brother had the best perspective of the pros & cons.
@shimronnetia
Ivorian brother is very honest...love from Kenya

I have been living in the United States for 20 years, left Nigeria at 19. I own my own home, 2 story building in a newly developed community, I make decent income. Yes we pay some taxes in the US but not crazy like the UK. My life is good, can't complain.
@freedomm
Kenyan 🇰🇪 here. One year of grad school was enough for me. The UK and Europe made me love my country like I'd never imagined.
@joneschilufya867
Been in the UK 3 years now doing a PhD and one thing that’s certain with me is that I’m going back home to Zambia after — the UK is nice in terms of opportunities but u’ll never do enough out of those opportunities besides “living the good life”.. Being here has opened my eyes on how many opportunities we have back home that we haven’t taken advantage of yet.
@DzikitidZikiti
I'm a Zimbabwean and have been here in the UK for 7 months,I tell u Africa is the best .You only like UK before u come.The Ivorian guy has said it all.Home sweet home.
@Hey_me
One of the best "tell them the truth" video i have seen so fast. The ivory coast born British brother just said what we have been saying for so many years. Its tough in Europe. Tax, tax, tax, debt, debt, debt.
@Chuksteve-Live
I like that Ivory Coast guy. He is so real
@moleratswag6570
As an American married to Nigerian and one who has visited Nigeria on many occasions, can honestly say I personally prefer Nigeria. I love the country, the beauty, the food, culture and people. I cannot wait to move there. My body feels so good when I’m there. the food is healthier and my stress level is different.
@DeborahSesay-x4m
I’m white British married to a Gambian for over 40 years. Uk was enough for my husband after 40 something years of working hard. We decided to moved back to his mother land the best decision we made together. We are lucky because we can travel out of Africa with our British passports. So we have the best of both worlds.
@sandranwokochaXO
This video was spot on! The Ivorian guy spoke nothing but the truth. The UK isn’t all it’s hyped up to be—after 18 years here, I can say the grass is truly greener where you water it. Steven, could you make a similar video about Dubai and South Africa? I’d love to hear more! But WELL DONE for making this video! 👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽👍🏽
